Kannonzaki trip

We took a short drive down to Kannonzaki (観音崎), which is at the entrance of Tokyo Bay. There is a small little beach here, where people can fish, swim, or just walk around.


My wife found a sea cucumber amongst the rocks.

The famous Kannonzaki Lighthouse, helping mariners find their way into Tokyo Bay.

Site of an old battery, where cannons used to be, to guard the entrance of Tokyo Bay.

Kites are a common sight in the Miura Peninsula, and we saw lots of them at Kannonzaki as well.

We had lunch at a small little restaurant, and the owners actually have their own ukelele band and performed two pieces for us.
